Business and Society: Corporate Strategy, Public Policy and Ethics

This was the first book to be published in the field of business and society and is now market leader. For over thirty years, it has been updated and reinvented in response to society's relationship to business. Post, Lawrence and Weber discuss the social and ethical impacts of business, and highlight why government regulation is sometimes required as well as dealing with new models of business-community collaboration. The authors believe that businesses have social as well as economic responsibilities to society; that business and government both have important roles to play in the modern economy; and that ethics and integrity are essential to personal fulfilment and to business success.
